Title: Methane Data for Action – Accelerating Sustainable Development Goals via Climate Progress
Date: 26 September, 15:15-16:45
Location: In-Person, at 211 East 46th St, New York
This SDG 7 Action Forum session, organized by UNEP’s International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO), will center on the unfolding methane data revolution and the opportunity it presents to rapidly achieve climate progress and critical co-benefits for public health, energy security, and the environment.
With only six years left to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, the promise of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is in peril. The fragility of past hard-earned progress has been compounded by the climate crisis, spreading conflict, and a constrained global economic outlook.
As these global crises have also impacted energy issues, progress on SDG7 - ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all - has slowed. But SDG7 can and must still be achieved. Energy – and methane mitigation - is an essential ingredient for getting the world on track towards meeting the SDGs and the objectives of the Paris Agreement on climate change.
